    According to the United States government, people are classified as homeless if they have no place to stay and no expectation of finding a place for the next thirty days. Although technically accurate, that is an impersonal assessment of an enormous and very human problem.
    The homeless population represents all of us Americans. It includes men and women, the elderly, children, and infants. Its members are from all ethnic groups. What they have in common is poverty.
    Currently in the U.S., thirty-nine million people live in poverty. When money is really tight, paying the rent or buying food often becomes a choice. Government assistance in the form of food stamps does help but, as one homeless man explains, you can’t pay the rent with food stamps.
    With no money for rent, the streets and homeless shelters become the alternative.
    Although men make up the largest group within the homeless population, homeless women with children are rapidly joining them. In fact, one quarter of the homeless people in the U.S. are teenagers and young children.
    People may become homeless for numerous reasons. However, there are certain factors that many of these individuals have in common. They include a lack of adequate education and job skills. A majority of the teenagers and adults have not completed high school.
    The abuse of alcohol and drugs is also a common factor. One third of the adult homeless population abuses alcohol, while one quarter of the same group uses drugs.
    Some members of this population suffer mental health problems. Within the past several years many institutions for the mentally ill have been closed and their patients sent “home”. Unfortunately, a number of those people have no home to go to and they are unable to adequately look after themselves.
    Job loss in today’s economy has also become a real factor in the loss of people’s homes. The breakup of families through abandonment and divorce is also contributing factors, particularly when there are children involved. The parent who is left to care for the kids with inadequate income may be forced to depend on the homeless shelters to put a roof over their heads.
    【小题1】The writer thinks that the U.S. government’s definition for the homeless shows _________.

    A．an insincere attitude toward the homeless
    B．an unbearable attitude toward the homeless
    C．an uncivilized attitude toward the homeless
    D．an unsympathetic attitude toward the homeless
    【小题2】The U.S. government helps the homeless by _________.
    A．giving them homeless allowanceB．giving them food stamps
    C．finding jobs for themD．finding residence (a place to live) for them
    【小题3】People become homeless for all the following reasons EXCEPT _________.
    A．the lack of adequate education
    B．the abuse of alcohol and drugs
    C．the closure of institutions for the mentally ill
    D．the poor performance of economy
    【小题4】The breakup of families is likely to lead to homelessness because a parent with kids may _________.
    A．lose his or her job in today’s economy
    B．be unable to look after the kids
    C．not have enough income
    D．find residence at a homeless shelter

    E
    “You will remember this night forever,” he told me. My friend was taking me dumpster(垃圾桶)diving for the first time. We both needed costumes for a party so he decided to show me around a few of the city’s finest waste baskets. After finding costume materials in the thrift store(旧货店)dumpsters, we stopped at a grocery store. There we found a dumpster half filled with potatoes and bread. We collected bags of potatoes to share with friends and to use for cooking with Food Not Bombs(a group that shares free vegetarian food and speaks against war and poverty). I was later told that using the dumpsters could earn me the title of an urban pirate(海盗)-what a great honour!  
    My first dumpster dive opened new doors for me. I had struggled with spending money. Now I think it will prove difficult to buy anything after seeing what people throw away. Something about all those wasted resources is not right. It seems we are constantly buying more and more and throwing away perfectly usable items, while many cannot meet their basic needs.
    People who have never done their shopping in a dumpster believe it is dirty, dangerous, and humiliating. In reality, a diver with an old pair of jeans, a flashlight and a little common sense (wear boots and gloves to guard against sharp objects)should not have any trouble staying safe and can feel good about being a resourceful and responsible consumer. Dumpstering is a good way to save money, labour, and lessen our environmental impact.
    From that dumpster tour, I had a new opinion on garbage. I found I can do something in this wasteful society. By living simply and taking what little I need from others’ unwanted goods, I am able to begin to break the habits of wastefulness. The influence of that first urban pirate adventure created a continuing impact on my life.
    72. What is the attitude of the author to the title of an urban pirate?
    A. Tolerant          B. Proud         C. Respectful        D. Humiliating
    73. “My first dumpster dive opened new doors for me.” means          .
    A. it has led to a better life for me and made me wealthier
    B. it has made me buy nothing later and break the habits of wastefulness
    C. it has changed my views and attitudes to consumers and living
    D. it has brought me good senses to be a responsible and a resourceful consumer
    74. The main idea of the third paragraph is             .
    A. only the poor goes in for dumpstering
    B. how to keep safe while dumpstering
    C. the benefit and value of dumpstering  
    D. how to save money and lessen environmental impace
    75. In the writer’s opinion,          .
    A. there are many objects to be recycled in the dumpster
    B. there are too many people looking down upon the divers
    C. the little of an urban pirate is a prejudice
    D. the influence of the first urban pirate adventure had an ill effect on his life

    Joseph Goldberger was a doctor for the Unite States Public Health Service. In 1912, he began to study a disease that was killing thousands of people in the South. The disease was pellagra(烟酸缺乏病).
    Doctor Goldberger traveled to the state of Mississippi where many people had pellagra. He studied the patients and their families. Most of the people were poor. The doctor came to believe that the disease was not passed from one person to another, but instead had something to do with food.
    He received agreement from state officials to test this idea at a prison(监狱). Prisoners were offered pardons if they took part. One group of prisoners received their usual food, mostly corn. A second group ate meat, fresh vegetables and milk. Members of the first group developed pellagra. The second group did not.
    But some experts refused to accept that poor food caused pellagra. They thought there were other causes.
    So Doctor Goldberger put blood(血液) from a person with pellagra into his own body. He even took pills that had blood from pellagra patients. An assistant also took part in the experiments. So did Doctor Goldberger’s wife. None of them got sick. Later, the doctor discovered that a bit of dried brewer’s yeast(酿酒的酵母) each day could prevent pellagra.
    Joseph Goldberger died of cancer in 1929. He was 55 years old. Several years later, researchers discovered the true cause of pellagra: having little of the vitamin B.

    a. He did a test on prisoners at a prison.
    b. He did the experiments on himself.
    c. He came to Mississippi to study the patients and their families.
    d. He found poor food was easy to cause pellagra.

    C．Doctor Goldberger’s work experience
    D．Doctor Goldberger’s study on pellagra

    When first entered, Vanak Restaurant does not look like much of a restaurant, but once the pleasant smells of kabob(烤羊肉串）hit the senses, you are incapable of calling it anything less.

    The main dish that the restaurant is popular for is its kabobs, which are different styles of grilled meat.
    One delicious and extremely healthy dish is the Joojeh Kabob, which is made of grilled chicken pieces served with either rice or bread. Another great kabob is the Chelo Kabob, kabob consisting of grilled beef.
